Re: How to be Seen at Night
@Anthony K - I'd be wary of mounting a light on the back of your helmet. Trouty had one and when she had a crash where she hit the back of her head on the road, the light smashed the back of her helmet and dug into her head .. causing injury where none should have happened.

Re: Easter Mon 6th April @ Eastern Ck Erik Mather-Colnago Cu
Hi Emma. There is E grade - probably a good place to start. How much riding do you do a week? E Grade will be about 45-50 mins + 1 lap. D grade will be 60 mins +1 lap and you'd want to be a strong C28 pace rider to stay with the bunch (depending on how many riders turn up on the day).

Is it "the bunch you ride with" grading again or can we nominate or will there be some official grading.
Note to grading people. I got caught and passed by D grade last time out. I think that's where I belong

Hi Richard - what age is your son? We do have some juniors regularly riding LaPa and the bunch looks after them but we need to think about the ride home too as the bunch splits up - some go to work, some go to coffee and some back home, which may not necessarily be Marrickville.

The Dulwich Hill post office is a long way from the Gladstone Hotel carpark which really fronts Canterbury Rd and is very open. Issue would be that slowies would have to ride down Marrickville Rd which is not going to fly I wouldn't think.
